This brooch is in excellent vintage condition with no dents or dings and no repairs- all in original condition with the exception of the large green rhinestone which appears to have been replaced at some time. On the pin's back is a plaque with the words "Sterling", "Coro" in large slanted type and "Craft" in small printed type, and the Pegasus symbol.
